research Measuring steroids in hair opens up possibilities to identify congenital adrenal hyperplasia in developing countries
Hair steroid measurement is an effective method to diagnose and monitor CAH in developing countries.
research Defining the transcriptional signature of esophageal-to-skin lineage conversion
Adult esophageal cells can start to become like skin cells, with a key pathway influencing this change.
research Self-Assessments of Standardized Scalp Massages for Androgenic Alopecia: Survey Results
Scalp massages may help stabilize or regrow hair in people suffering from hair loss, regardless of age, gender, or use of other treatments.
research Topical treatment with the bacterium-derived c-Met agonist InlB321/15 accelerates healing in the abrasion wound mouse model
Applying InlB321/15 to wounds sped up healing in mice.
research Transcriptomic analysis of regulatory mechanisms in the telogen-anagen transition of ovine hair follicles
Key genes and pathways control sheep hair growth phases.
research Rapid mechanosensitive migration and dispersal of newly divided mesenchymal cells aid their recruitment into dermal condensates
Newly divided skin cells quickly move to join skin structures due to tissue tension and specific signals.
research Stem cells tightly regulate dead cell clearance to maintain tissue fitness
Stem cells help remove dead cells to keep tissues healthy by balancing cell replacement and clearance.
research Comparison Between Trichoscopic and Histopathological Evaluations of Hair Parameters
Trichoscopy and pathological examination both have unique benefits and cannot completely replace each other in evaluating hair.
research Mapping the molecular and structural specialization of the skin basement membrane for inter-tissue interactions
The skin's basement membrane is specially designed to support different types of connections between skin layers and hair follicles.
research Establishment of dermal sheath cell line from Cashmere goat and characterizing cytokeratin 13 as its novel biomarker
Scientists created a new cell line from Cashmere goat hair and found that cytokeratin 13 is a unique marker for certain skin cells.
research Pediculosis
Scalp biopsies are important for diagnosing hair loss conditions.
research Phytochemicals for Hair Health Targeting Growth Signaling Molecules in Hair Follicular Stem Cells: A New Strategy for Hair Growth
Natural extracts may promote hair growth with fewer side effects than conventional treatments.
research Identification of lncRNAs involved in the hair follicle cycle transition of cashmere goats in response to photoperiod change
lncRNAs may help control cashmere goat hair growth by responding to light changes.
research Performance exploration of multi-gene panels of alopecia areata susceptibility and drug-binding targets
Methotrexate, resveratrol, and curcumin may help treat alopecia areata by targeting immune cells.
research The Menopausal Transition: Is the Hair Follicle “Going through Menopause”?
Menopause can cause hair thinning and texture changes due to hormonal and metabolic shifts.
research Multi-scale spatial mapping of cell populations across anatomical sites in healthy human skin and basal cell carcinoma
The research created a detailed map of skin cells, showing that certain cells in basal cell carcinoma may come from hair follicles and could help the cancer grow.
research Vitamins and their derivatives synergistically promote hair shaft elongation ex vivo via PlGF/VEGFR-1 signalling activation
Certain vitamins and their derivatives can help hair grow longer by activating specific growth signals.
research Alopecia in dogs causes,incidance and clinical signs with special reference to nutritional alopecia
Alopecia in dogs is often caused by mange, flea and tick infestations, and nutritional deficiencies, especially in males and young dogs.
research Thyroid Hormone Receptor Agonist Promotes Hair Growth in Mice
TDM10842, a thyroid hormone receptor activator, was found to effectively promote hair growth in mice.
research In vivo imaging of mammary epithelial cell dynamics in response to lineage-biased Wnt/β-catenin activation
Activating β-catenin in mammary cells leads to changes that cause early-stage abnormal growths similar to skin structures.
research Culturing of Melanocytes from the Equine Hair Follicle Outer Root Sheath
Researchers successfully grew horse skin cells that produce pigment from hair follicle samples.
research Characterization of novel TMEM173 mutation with additive IFIH1 risk allele
A new mutation in the TMEM173 gene and a risk allele in IFIH1 cause a unique set of immune-related symptoms.
research Ichthyosis fetalis in a cross‐bred lamb
A cross-bred lamb with severe skin and movement issues had ichthyosis fetalis but normal vitamin A levels.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
research Dermoscopic Approach to Nonscarring Alopecia
Dermoscopy is useful for identifying and tracking different types of hair loss without scarring.
research Probing androgen receptor co-factor selectivity profiles: a chemical tool to determine cross-talk between androgen receptor and β-catenin in vivo
